Status: offline 		Which one of these two 4-stroke engines do you reccommend for the Morris Hobbies Pen Knife? The Saito FA-30 or the Saito FA-40? The case size are the exact same but the FA-30 weighs 8.96 oz and the FA-40 weighs 10.64 oz? I'm leaning toward the FA-40 for the power. I heard someone say that they didn't think the 30 would have the power as some of the 2 strokes. I really want something that would make it hover pretty good and have unlimited vertical but I know since the small size of the plane that it would still be hard. Thank You Very Much!!
